Despite working with the Green Oval products for many years I do have a real soft spot for both the Nissan 160/260 models(always LWB) and Toyota HJ60. Overland expedition is my long term retirement plan! Looking for to seeing this evolve

Overland expedition is my long term retirement plan! Looking for to seeing this evolve 60 and 70 series cruisers are another weekness of mine. I spotted a silver 60 a few weeks back coming the other way while in the Patrol, then the other day I followed a J spec 62 through Milton Keynes. We all acknowledged each other with a sort of 'last of the breed, leaf sprung, dinosaur diesels awesomeness' wave and smirk. |

So its just had new wheel studs on the rear axle and a new set of wheel nuts.
Since I've changed the fuel filter and now I am getting a fuel starvation problem but not all the times. I have replaced the filter again, some of the pipes that looked dodgy to the injector pump and filter housing. Also fitted a known good set of injectors.
After all that, it was fine for about 70 miles, then 2 miles from where I was going, it dropped at least 1 cylinder, lost all power and even cut out. It restarted strait away but not on all 6.
So its now stuck at work, great.
Any one want to buy a cheap Patrol???

Cyl1 and 2 not firing. I cracked of the injector pipes, and the no fuel coming out of the pump.
Sigh. I might change my mood after a few days, but I think i don't really want to spend any more on it so think its going up for sale as is.

Very weird, I started it up today to move it and it has cleared its throat with a big plume of black and blue smoke and is now back on all 6!
